President Trump denounced all forms of racism and violence in a tweet Saturday morning, specifically mentioning the Charlottesville riots that occurred one year ago. The tweet comes ahead of a “Unite The Right” rally that is scheduled for this weekend in Washington, D.C.

The riots in Charlottesville a year ago resulted in senseless death and division. We must come together as a nation. I condemn all types of racism and acts of violence. Peace to ALL Americans! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 11, 2018

“The riots in Charlottesville a year ago resulted in senseless death and division,” Trump’s tweet read.

At last year’s rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, an alt-right protester deliberately drove his car into a group of counter-protesters. Heather Heyer, 32, died from the injuries she sustained, and 19 others were hurt.

As a concerned renter, President Trump probably would prefer not to have blood shed on his front lawn.

The Left will denounce Trump for this, saying “all forms of racism” is code for denouncing anti-white positions too.

Trump is the least racist man to ever be President.

As a businessman he never saw gender, race, religion etc in his dealings - if you were loyal and did a good job, you would prosper under Trump.

Trump will win over 50% of the Black vote in 2020. and when he does it will be the final death blow to the Democratic Party

I just hope that there aren’t any groups that are so racist that they call their group [Only Their Race’s] Lives Matter.

“I condemn all types of racism and acts of violence.”

That’s not going to go over well with the Only Black Lives Matter thugs.

Trump shouldn’t even say anything about racism. The Left will call him a racist and treat him like a racist because he is not a Leftist, and worse he happens to be white.

“And the homosexual deviate community would claim Trump curing cancer while ignoring AIDs was clearly an act of a homophobic person.”

And what about Tay Sachs? Huh? Huh? Obviously and anti-Semite.

Uniting the right is necessary despite the talking heads. The biggest racists are Leftists who uses the accusation of racism as a weapon. Who is most vulnerable to racist accusations but most undeserving of them? Whites in particular are most vulnerable. This makes it easy to intimidate and blackmail whites professionally, politically and socially.

You know how it goes. The fans of John Brown had difficulty deciding whether or not he was superior to Jesus, since Jesus didn’t free any slaves. A few years later that same question was attached to Lincoln. And anyone who thinks that is hyperbole simply hasn’t read what the Boston transcendentalists were writing at the time. The Battle Hymn of the Republic is one of the finest examples, most people thinking it’s a religious hymn. It’s a hymn celebrating the nation as a vengeful God with his “gospel” written in gleaming bayonets. Even the Germans didn’t think of that one.

Conservatives, Trump supporters and more should be there tomorrow to tell these people and the world that we stand united not by race, certainly not by color but we stand united through our country, our Constitution, and our Liberty.

That is the best statement he could say about that topic.
Whatever answer given will be picked apart and doubted anyway.

But leftists love racism against white people and then they say that one can not be racist against a white person.

Leftists are horrible people who hate white people and practice all those things they say they are against.

Good for Trump. This ‘protest’ smacks of ‘democrat dirty tricks’...

This just drives the DAZIs nuts. That cant stand that there racists like Maxine Waters and Farakan are in the presidents wrath too. It is ,of course the accurate and balanced position to take. I am sick of this one sided crap.
